Seamus Coleman once again showed he is one of football's good guys with a poignant training ground phone call to an Everton team-mate.
The Blues captain led the side to safety after a gruelling relegation battle that almost ended in disaster. Frank Lampard heaped praise on the 33-year-old throughout the final weeks of the season, ranking his leadership skills so highly he included him in the matchday squad to face Burnley despite knowing he was unlikely to be able to play a part on the pitch as he regained fitness.
In the aftermath of the dramatic comeback win over Crystal Palace that secured Everton's Premier League survival, manager Lampard went further and declared Coleman one of the best people he had met.
